[Boost-users] How to obtain vertex pointer (not descriptor) of vertex created with add_vertex.

Hi,  

   I am trying to modify a set of file parser callback functions (for a
custom file format) to populate a  Boost graph. The callbacks provide a
(void*) pointer style parameter passing. But Boost graph method
add_vertex(graph) will return a vertex descriptor. How do I obtain the
pointer information for this newly added vertex so that the pointer can
be cast as (void*) and passed to the appropriate call back?

 

Thanks,

Ananth
